Stage 2 hardware, peace of mind and process

After Stage 1

There's no meaningful Stage 2 figure for this engine; most of the gain comes with Stage 1 software. For livelier throttle response and a deeper intake sound, you can complement Stage 1 with the Custom Sport Filter Kit.

Included every time

Power with peace of mind

  • Original software backup — the factory software is read and archived before the job.
  • Reversal — the car can be returned to its original software whenever you ask.
  • Datalog check — boost pressure, ignition and air/fuel ratio are recorded and checked on a road test.
  • Vehicle-specific calibration — not an off-the-shelf file; tuned to the engine, hardware and fuel quality.
  • Pre-tune diagnostics — fault memory is read and engine health is checked before the software.
